The experiment.


A year ago I finished a new short story called Spencer the Spider and the Witch in the Wood. Because of many other projects that I have been involved with I put Spencer on the back burner and have just recently revisited it. I have done some rewrites and a lot of editing and feel that it is now ready to go to the publishers.

I have decided to try an experiment. Spencer is a Halloween story and it is to late to try and get it published with a traditional publisher in time for the Halloween season so I am going to try and self publish this short story. I am also going to post a blog entry describing what I am doing for every step of this journey.

My first step has been to send my manuscript to an independent editor. I am using an editing firm that I have used in the past. The best way to find an editor that will meet your needs is to research them through Google or Bing. (I love Google and would be lost without it.) Editing services are not cheap so it is important to find one that is highly rated and will perform the services that you need. I will post again when I get my manuscript back in about a week.

Good luck, and keep writing!
